The Malcolm gives us a peak at the Commonwealth Utilities invitation for the upcoming Fashion Week. Commonwealth Utilities’ show kicks off on February 14th, 2010 at The NoMad Hotel and the invite, inspired An Officer and a Gentleman, is designed in collaboration with Chandelier Creative‘s Richard Christiansen. Featuring one-of-a-kind military medals, the invite has already sparked interest and intrigue due to it’s nostalgic nature and one-of-a-kind packaging…
It’s also sparked controversy because of the whole faking-military-insignia angle to it…
I remember reading a critique of this choice of an invitation, but don’t know where. Interesting as an alternative point of view.
